Course delivery is generally through the use of Internet contents and virtual office meetings. Students MUST check Hawaii.edu emails regularly to keep up with announcements, homework, assignments, exams, etc.

Course announcements are posted directly on to our Laulima course site; however, students will also receive messages on their MyUH portal (your hawaii.edu email account). You should check the website or your MyUH for recent announcements.

This course will also be using Schoology.com to facilitate assignments, discussions, projects, etc. Course updates will be posted to the course webpage. Students are encouraged to activate the notification preferences for prompt information.

Both asynchronous and synchronous modes will be used in this course. Students are encouraged to work at their own pace, asynchronously. However, certain situations may call for synchronicity, such as group projects and tutoring sessions.
